Avenue Inn Downtown San Luis Obispo

8/10 Good

"Would definitely stay again the staff is super fun and a lot of days the bathroom before our check-in time in one of the dirty rooms they’re still cleaning. We were also able to park there before our check-in time to walk around downtown. The bed was comfortable. It’s just the TV is quite old even though we brought our fire sticks I did not work with such an old TV. Overall, we like the location and we will definitely stay again."
